A healing writer? No, it's a depressing writer!
Chapter 308: A literary master who influenced a generation of people in Europe and America! A memora
Chapter 308: A literary master who influenced a generation of Europeans and Americans! A famous scene that is hard to forget! Our goal is equality for all beings
This thought flashed through Jiang Hai's mind for a third of a millisecond, but he immediately denied it.
"The police said that your idea is very serious. Please continue. This is the first time we have heard such a statement."
That was when Jiang Hai was staring at the small advertisement on the telephone pole in a daze:
"Donate? Or not donate?"
“That’s a problem.”
In the distance, a voice suddenly came from the direction of Chen Hanying:
"Jiang Hai, Jiang Hai, where are you?"
His eyes searched for Jiang Hai's location, and Chen Hanying trotted towards Jiang Hai.
When she ran to his side, she began to speak with great interest:
"What are you doing here?"
"Jiang Hai, I have some great news for you."
Nineteen million copies sold in one week?
Upon hearing the news, Jiang Hai was not the least bit excited. Instead, he quietly lit a cigarette:
"Calm down."
"Remember, as a qualified author, we must always remain calm"
For other writers, sales of 19 million copies a week, close to 20 million copies, is certainly a height that they cannot achieve in their entire lives.
But for Jiang Hai, all this can only be said
Just right?
You have to know that the detective queen Agatha's And Then There Were None sold more than 20 million copies as soon as it was released in the th century. This sales record was a record in the era of highly developed literary works in the previous life.
So far, no one has broken through!
Now, it is already the 21st century!
In today's highly popular Internet era, in a British church where countless media gathered, with the blessing of such a large exposure of the work -
Nineteen million copies sold in one week?
This result cannot be said to be the limit, it should only be considered as above average?
You can't say it's a small thing, it should barely be considered a medium thing, right?
"Let the bullets fly for a while." After saying that, Jiang Hai put his hands behind his back and strolled on the street.
"Do you know, Jiang Hai?" Chen Hanying held up her phone and excitedly told Jiang Hai the news she had heard, "I heard that this time Queen Elizabeth specially prepared a rehearsal competition for your matter."
Work is work and life is life.
As a mature office worker, we must learn to separate work and life.
I'm on vacation now, why do you always bring up those fancy things to me?
Jiang Hai's simple words immediately stopped Chen Hanying from chattering:
"You're being long-winded."
Walking on the streets of London, the medieval buildings full of British style are so pleasing to the eye.
Scenes keep appearing before my eyes——
A magnificent church.
Sacred Hall.
Big Ben rang, and white doves flew everywhere, startled by the bell.
At this moment, the scenery is just right and the sun is shining brightly.
Far away in a foreign country, looking at the bustling crowd, for some reason, a sentence flashed through Jiang Hai's mind:
"The person you pass by on the street may be someone you dream about day and night but never meet in your whole life."
"You're right." Jiang Hai walked on the street for no reason, and a feeling of homesickness suddenly surged in his heart. "I really miss home a little bit after being out for a few months."
Only after you come out, you will know——
The moon in foreign countries is not rounder than the one in China.
The air here is not as sweet as imagined.
Are the donuts really delicious?
That thing is so sweet, but it’s not as magical as Runren said.
Compared to these high-calorie, high-fat foods, Jiang Hai still misses the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas and the wantonness of the school cafeteria.
That’s right, it’s soy milk and fried dough sticks.
"I don't know how you guys are doing lately." This thought suddenly flashed through Jiang Hai's mind for no reason.
He glanced and happened to see a Chinese fantasy adventure book on a newsstand on the streets of London. It shouldn't belong in this place.
Dragons III: Tides of Black Moon
"Oh my god?" Jiang Hai was surprised when he saw this long-lost youth adventure book in the street newspaper office. "Why did this "Dragon Tribe" appear in Europe?"
“Why is it here?”
Walk slowly into the store.
Jiang Hai picked up "Dragon Clan" on the newsstand and flipped through a few pages. The Chinese promotional slogan for "Dragon Clan" made by the foreigners was:
[Oriental "Harry Potter"! Passion and adventure coexist! A thrilling youth adventure book]
Even though Jiang Hai had absolute confidence in the quality of "Dragon Clan", he never thought that -
Can "Dragon Tribe" actually go beyond the borders of Asia and be sold in Europe and America?
"You're right." Jiang Hai sighed with satisfaction as he flipped through the English translation of "The Dragon Tribe" in his hand, "Whether it's the world view, word formation, or Westernized background, "The Dragon Tribe" is definitely a fantasy adventure literature that is very suitable for translation into a foreign language."
If.
Japan's light novel literary genre is a bestseller all over the world.
So why can’t China’s hot-blooded adventure books go beyond Asia and become popular in Europe and the United States?
As Jiang Hai was flipping through the book "Dragon Clan" in his hand, he exclaimed in surprise:
"You know what, this translation is really quite interesting."
In the distance, there is a foreign teenager with brown hair and a backpack.
Sitting in front of the newsstand, crying and muttering:
"Chu Zihang, when you, the president of the Bloodthirsty United Student Union for the third time, Caesar, failed to defeat the weakest emperor in Japanese history, you should understand that the Jörmungandr you killed at that time was still Xia Mi, whom you had been thinking about so much."
"Chu Zihang, why did you want to kill Xia Mi? You have no heart"
Which young man doesn’t have love in his heart?
Which young man, when he was young, had not imagined that his beloved was wearing colorful clothes, stepping on colorful clouds, overcoming all kinds of difficulties and dangers, and traveling thousands of miles to the mountains and seas just to give her passionate heart to him?
As for the obsession with love, no one can escape it as long as they are human.
Foreigners are no exception.
When he saw with his own eyes Chu Zihang killing his beloved Xia Mi with a single knife, Xia Mi, the most infatuated woman in the world, died tragically at the hands of her beloved.
This young man from the UK immediately let out a howl like a pig being slaughtered:
“Oh, no, shit!!!!”
The last time he remembered it so deeply was when the hero Jack in Titanic offered his life for the heroine Rose:
"You will get out of this, you will live, have many children, watch them grow up, and you will live out your life in peace and comfort in a warm bed, not here tonight, not dying like this."
"Knowing you is the luckiest thing in my life. You must help me, promise me to live, and promise me that you will not give up. No matter what happens, no matter what the circumstances are, Rose, promise me, don't forget."
It has to be said that in order to let Rose survive, Jack took the initiative to leave the hope of life to Rose.
Alone, sinking into the freezing dark seabed, that scene.
It’s really hard to accept!
So that the audience will never forget it for the rest of their lives!
Every time I think of this scene, I feel heartbroken.
I thought that after so many years, I had subconsciously forgotten that unforgettable knife.
Today, because of a fantasy adventure novel, will the sadness buried deep in your heart be brought up again?
Aren’t Chu Zihang and Xia Mi another pair of Jack and Rose?
It's just that the genders are reversed!
Jack died in front of Rose.
Xia Mi also died in Chu Zihang's arms.
However, the difference from Titanic is that
Jack bravely went to his death in order to survive better.
Xia Mi died tragically on the tip of the knife of the man she loved, and died tragically in the arms of the man she loved.
From this point of view, Xia Mi's death is more tragic than Jack's.
Even more tragic!
Even more heartbreaking!
As if in a frenzy, the young man holding the Dragon Tribe began a tearful performance on the street:
"oh, god, please" "oh, shit!"
"Oh, no"
Foreigners' words to express sadness.
Is it already so scarce?
"What is he doing?" Chen Hanying, who witnessed this scene, blinked her bright eyes and immediately felt puzzled, "How can someone cry like this just by reading a book?"
"To the extent that it doesn't."
You have to know that when a foreigner says "oh no", it doesn't necessarily mean that she is really happy.
When a foreigner uses words like "oh yes" and "yes please".
This is the best affirmation she can give you from the bottom of her heart.
"My comment is that you obviously haven't had enough." Jiang Hai bought a cup of coffee on the street and began to try to inhale it violently. After just one sip, he immediately frowned, "Hey, why didn't I drink the pearls in the first sip?"
Jiang Hai was wondering if the coffee he bought was fake.
The next second, the same position.
A group of teenagers from a British school, both boys and girls, who looked to be about 14 or 15 years old, immediately wailed in despair:
"Eriyi!"
"How could you die like this?"
"My dear Eri"
The tragedy of Eri lies in the fact that, on the one hand, she was a simple girl who was full of yearning for beautiful love, but under the guidance of the evil ritual, her plump body was sucked away bit by bit and turned into a mummy. She lost her vitality right under the nose of her beloved.
On the other hand, it is that——
After Eri died, she left a diary for the protagonist Lu Mingfei:
[“04.24, went to Tokyo Skytree with Sakura. The warmest place in the world is at the top of the Skytree.”]
[“04.26, went to Meiji Shrine with Sakura. Someone was holding a wedding there.”]
[“04.25, went to Disney with Sakura. The haunted house was scary, but it wasn’t scary because Sakura was there.”]
[“Sakura is the best.”]
Asking what love is in the world can teach you how to make love between life and death.
Imagine this scenario:
If one day Bai Yueguang died in a car accident, on her deathbed, she would hand over a letter to you who were young and self-abased and dared not confess. In this letter, Bai Yueguang recorded every detail of their life together. The goddess who was unattainable in your impression was actually paying attention to you secretly. Through this letter on her deathbed, you would know a cruel fact -
The goddess you like actually likes you too.
Good news: I won the prize.
The bad news: it's expired.
When you had hope of saving Bai Yueguang, you acted like a coward and mistakenly caused Bai Yueguang to lose her life.
When she died tragically in your arms.
This touch of sadness will probably accompany you throughout your life, and the white moonlight will eventually become a cinnabar mole
"Why do all lovers in the world have no happy ending???"
"Why write such a tragic ending???"
"My Xia Mi, my Eri, wuwuwuwuwu."
To be honest, the current situation is really magical.
In the first half of Baker Street -
Everyone was impressed by the meticulous logic and ingenious imagination of Jiang Hai's "And Then There Were None".
Many readers were moved by Judge Wargrave's heroic spirit of risking his life to win the game, and some even shed tears:
"This is definitely a noble person!"
"This is definitely a pure person!"
"This is definitely a person who has transcended vulgarity!"
"In order to maintain the justice in his heart, he is even willing to sacrifice his own life?"
"Sir, Dayi"
In the latter part of Baker Street—
Most people, especially young people, were moved by the sincere love between Xia Mi and Chu Zihang, and between Hui Liyi and Lu Mingfei:
"Why do lovers in the world always be together?"
"Why can't the people we love be together forever?"
"If I could, I would like to petition God. I would like to exchange a quarter of the author's life for a girlfriend like Eri who only has eyes for me. If I can't, it doesn't matter. You can just deduct the life span normally."
"I don't mean anything else, I just want to waste his life"
Who could have thought that Jiang Hai would become a big hit in the UK through the Reasoning Masters Competition.
An unknown writer from China, whose works have quietly taken over Europe
Can it even compete with Jiang Hai?
"Mist and Rain in Jiangnan?" Chen Hanying picked up a copy of "Dragon Clan" on the table, looked at the author's name on the book, and immediately exclaimed, "This author named Mist and Rain in Jiangnan is so amazing!"
“Without any official promotional resources, how could his works be sold all the way to Europe?”
Of course, Jiang Hai's And Then There Were None is better now, and nearly two-thirds of the people on Baker Street are discussing the overall plot of this book.
But you have to know that this is under the official background.
This is what we have achieved!
Without any resources to promote it, an unknown writer from China was able to get it from Jianghai.
Grab the remaining one-third of the market share?
This result is already amazing.
"Why didn't I hear about such a great writer when I was in China?" Chen Hanying asked Jiang Hai in confusion while flipping through "The Dragon Tribe". "Jiang Hai, have you heard of this author's name?"
"What do you think."
What do you think?
Of course I watched it while lying down.
"Perhaps, the readers' ages are different?" Jiang Hai put down the book "Dragon Clan" in his hand, looked around, and made up an excuse at random, "Look carefully, the boy next to you is called Xiao Shuai"
"Have you noticed that most of the people who watched And Then There Were None are middle-aged people who are older, knowledgeable and capable?"
"Most of the people who watch 'Dragon Tribe' are teenagers who have little experience but are full of enthusiasm for the future?"
Chen Hanying looked around and began to carefully observe the people around her.
After a while, he nodded directly:
"It really is"
Jiang Hai put his hands in his pockets and started walking forward:
“If And Then There Were None can satisfy the reading interests of middle-aged and elderly people, Dragon Clan can satisfy young people’s yearning for a better future.”
“This is actually a good thing.”
That is, Jiang Hai was thinking secretly in his mind:
“If there is a book that can make British children start to love reading.”
"Do I count as being present throughout their lives?"
"Has it affected their lives?"
step.
Two steps.
Three steps.
Jiang Hai kept thinking about this question while walking forward.
I don’t know how long it took.
Behind him, Chen Hanying's voice suddenly sounded:
"Jiang Hai, there is something here that I'm afraid I need you to handle."
Jiang Hai was about to refuse: "Didn't I tell you not to bother me when I'm thinking about something?"
Unexpectedly, he was not given any chance to refuse.
Chen Hanying shouted towards his back:
"Queen Elizabeth and the British Prime Minister invite you to dinner."
